What can i use as an additive to assist cleaning?

Woulds like to get Dads WW2 medals back to a decent condition
I have seen that ordinary salt is ok

Any comments

Thanks

I looked into this last year and I think the main ingredient in commercial products is washing up liquid
and water,but different people use different things added from cilit bang to vinegar and ammonia, depending on
the metal to clean.

my friend did a a nice thing with his dad's medals, a small picture frame with the medals in, a small black
and white picture of his dad in his uniform and a painting of the tank he served in, one of the first tanks
ashore on D day (Hobarts Funnies ) it's in his front room but in a little alcove so not directly on show.

Look at clock or jewellery cleaning fluids. I use Horolene, but there are some DIY alternatives based on ammonia and soap.
